Quick summary of Mille Lacs County trip:

* Pacific Loon, Mille Lacs Lake, Hillcrest stop near southwestern edge of 
lake

* Barrow's Goldeneye (probable) still present on Wigwam Bay near the rocks - 
flight revealed similarities to Sibley's Barrow's

* Red-throated Loon, Garrison (fish pull off).

So the main highlights of the last 2-3 weeks still remain here on day one of 
November.  In addition:

* 18 waterfowl in general area, including 15 ducks - best viewing at 
Interpretive Center in Kathio State Park.

Snow Buntings have greatly diminished (only five, last week 200-300 total).

Good birding to all!
